The Eleventh International Conference on Methods in
Dialectology (Methods XI) will be held from 5 to 9 August,
2002, at the University of Joensuu, North Karelia, Finland.
This conference, which has previously met triennially at
various places in Canada and the United Kingdom, is now
for the first time arranged in northern Europe. From its
initial focus on problems of methodology, the conference
series has gradually expanded its scope to cover the whole
range of issues relating to regional, social and also
historical variation in any language, group of languages
or linguistic area.
The first call for papers will be sent out by the end of
April, 2001. Further information about the conference
will soon be available from the following website:
